Sejm will pass EU veterinary norms, approaching conclusion of negotiations

The Sejm will pass the EU veterinary control norms bill today. Polish negotiators are close to abandoning application for transition periods for adjustment of regulations concerning milk and meat hygiene standards, thus approaching the conclusion of EU veterinary negotiations. Currently around half of Poland's milk production meets EU hygiene requirements, and before the end of this year that figure will increase to 70%. (Rzeczpospolita, p.B1) J.K.
